EV skills in Shimla
As of August 2026, Himachal Pradesh had procured 297 Type-I electric buses for the Himachal Road Transport Corporation (HRTC), running from Shimla to Dharamshala and other towns, and it plans 1,000 more. One e-bus on the Shimla–Chandigarh route covers about 270 km on a charge.
In Shimla itself, HRTC ran 70 e-buses on local routes in 2023 and began building charging stations at Taradevi, Tutikandi, Lalpani, Junga and Theog. The state's Rajiv Gandhi Swarozgar Start-up Yojana offers a 50% subsidy on e-taxis, e-buses and e-trucks, starting in October 2023.
HRTC's newer e-buses run in Shimla, Nahan, Una, Hamirpur, Dharamshala and several other towns.
HRTC reports saving about Rs 12–13 per km on energy compared with diesel buses.
The 50% e-taxi subsidy is aimed at unemployed young people, who attach the vehicles to government bodies.

Who it is for
Mechanics who maintain buses or taxis can take CEVT to learn EV diagnostics, with a 21-day workshop at a DIYguru centre.
Drivers who now own an e-taxi can learn battery care, charging and basic fault-finding through the industry ecosystem programme.
Engineers in power or hydro projects can apply grid skills to charging and battery systems through the battery and BMS Nanodegree.
Engineering students can study online without leaving the hills, and choose the PG programme for hands-on modules and placement support.
Studying from Shimla
Apply from Shimla; our admissions team confirms the fees, EMI options and your batch dates.
Join live classes with EV engineers, then go back to recorded lessons, notes and quizzes whenever you need them.
Work through design calculations, simulations and projects. An optional DIY hardware kit lets you practise on a real control board at home, delivered anywhere in India.
The CEVT and PG programmes include hands-on workshops at our Delhi and Pune centres: batteries, motors, controllers, charging and diagnostics on real vehicles. Nearest to Shimla: Delhi (Sultanpur).
Finish the projects and assessments to earn your certificate, with a verification link you can share with employers.
Certificates
Himachal Pradesh has no licence for EV technicians, and India has no national one. ASDC's NSQF job roles cover EV service, including bus and heavy vehicle work. Installing chargers is electrical work under Central Electricity Authority regulations and the state's rules, and must be done by licensed electrical personnel. Our certificate records the training you completed; it is not a licence.
